A north-bound b. & o. freight
train was wrecked near Timberville,
Rockingham county, Va, last
Wednesday. Billy Cooley, of Stras-
burg, Va, brakeman, was killed.
and Edward Russell, conductor, badly
hurt. There were seven passengers
on the train, but no others were hurt.
Three cars were demolished. The
cause of the accidents unknown, the
engine having kept the track. Coo
ley, the brakeman who was killed,
was running in place of VIM. H.
Wingley, regular brakeman, who was
off that day for thepurpose of getting
married at Berryville, and thus Sc
cured wife and avoided serious
accident at one and the same time.
In another column will be found
the advertisement of A. II. Oehm,

servedly stands so high as a cutter of
fashionable garments, can always be
found at the establishment. His ri ght
hand has lost none of its cunning,
and those who wish to appear in the
height of fashion will, of course, call
on the Captain who always guarantees
satisfaction to his customers. He is
always in receipt of the latest styles.
